Just remember WHERE your 5th wheel hitch is located in the bed. DO YOU HAVE ENOUGH CLEARANCE WHEN SHARP TURNING TO CLEAR THE BACK OF THE TRUCK CAB AND WINDOW WHEN YOU INSTALL EXTRA EQUIPMENT? Doug
Really an non issue, bikes are far narrower than front of 5er. Have posted before and one guy reported back that he had a four bike rack on a short bed!
I have seen the damage from when you have a Pin box and hitch with NO clearance and the Front cap hits the Cab and window. So, to state non issue, maybe for YOU, but there are always candidates for the Darwin awards. I mentioned this because there are those that would NOT think of this prior to installing and then making that sharp turn. Kind of like all those you tube videos's that show the destruction on 5th wheels tearing down Gas Station awnings.:B Doug
